    Summary

    Clea decides to destroy Verso, believing him too unpredictable to be left alone. Unfortunately for her, his chroma is tied to the very heart of the Canvas. So she neutralizes him the only way she can, separating his chroma, his spirit, from his body.

    Now, forced to exist as a ghost in the Canvas, Verso watches over Maelle and tries to find a way to set things right. It gets worse before it gets better. How can he save his mother or help his sister, when he’s nothing but a fading echo of a man he can never be?

    Summary

    Gustave let go of a heavy sigh and nodded his head. Back in the Stone Wave Cliffs, he had come to peace that this was where his journey ended—For those who come after, right?—but it seemed like his story wasn't done just yet. Maelle had, somehow, given him another lease on life, and this time, he could live it. He could grow old. He could do things simply for the sake of doing them; every waking moment didn't have to be dedicated to trying to solve the issue with the Paintress, with preserving their civilization.

    --
    Or: Maelle returns Lumière to its former glory, but... things just seem a bit off. Gustave investigates.

    Summary

    He plays all the sharp, loud notes, he plays and plays until it bleeds, until it reverberates in his skull in a relentless cacophony. Until it echoes in the hall, up to the glass ceiling.

    A sharp movement in the audience catches his eye, beyond the halo of the stage light.

    At first he thinks it’s Maelle, that she’s spotted him doing something that she doesn’t like, doesn’t fit the perfect image of it in her head, but…

    It’s not Maelle.

    No, it’s Gustave.

    Gustave knows something's wrong with Lumiére. With himself. With Maelle. And he knows he'll find answers with the mysterious pianist. And Verso sees.
